Hi all Looking for a little help here. A little while ago i had a bit of a massive wiring failure. Unfortunately a wire ive never touched in my conversion (part of the gearbox loom) managed to become a heating element and take a load of other wires with it. Ive since replaced all faulty wires...

Hi chaps, i had a bit of a wiring failure the other week. Speedo wire seems to have been the source of some earthing and then some melting. During this process my ECU seems to have died as i can crank but it doesnt try to fire or do anything. The current ecu is part number 89661-50250, pre...

Wow, i like it, lots of info there! So i understand that 'heatons' have problems at high boost, but the thing is, im not chasing numbers. I think at the moment with the stock management, custom manifold back exhaust and free flowing intake im probably around the 260-270bhp mark. With the M90...

Sorry, i do get what youre saying, and i wouldnt want to go for a full ecu and map as its expensive. But for the cost of an Apexi SAFC2 and a setup on it, for safety, i was wondering if it would work. This is a long term thing just wondering if its worth keeping my ear to the ground and...

Ok, and its perfectly safe to run with the stock ecu? Or is it wise to get something like an air fuel controller to manage the map?

Ah, ok, an aftermarket fuel pressure regulator, or, in this case, a rising rate fuel pressure regulator. Will any do, or does it have to be that specific ratio? Also, are the stock injectors up to the job or do you need some bigger ones? Thanks already for the quick response. Im getting over...

Ok, so im already running a walbro in my conversion. Forgive my ignorance here, what is 12:1 FMU? Not familiar with the achronym, cheers

Ok, so its been a while since ive been on here. I did have a number of running issues which i was helped through by Bushwhacker and also from Gloverman (of The Cartune Company). After getting my car on the road i discovered HUGE rot in the sills amongst other places so went for a reshell. This...

thanks pajman, appreciate it!

Youve got mail though gloverman, think it needs another couple bits. Errrm, well lets just say there was a bundle of wires that were coloured incorrectly so i put them in the wrong place

There was a couple errors with the wiring that gloverman helped me to sort. Ive wired in relays and stuff now too so it has all the correct loops and the right things have the right power at the right time. There was also a monumental cock up but i dont want to discuss that one as its...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PB5clE_kKF8 Enjoy. Its still a work in progress but for now, id like to say a huge thankyou to bushwacker for your support with my build and also a huge thanks to gloverman of The Cartune Company in New Zealand. He helped me remotely via email with some guidance...

Really apreciate gloverman, dont want to just throw money at it, much happier getting advice and guidance so i can complete it myself.

Well if you can see an obvious problem and know what i need to do to make it work i have no problem with paying you. Send me an email on downhill_king at hotmail dot com to dicsuss, id really apreciate your input. Thanks

Ok, so i always thought M-Rel was just some loop thing to turn some other power source on. I never worried about it because the power is taken care of with the chassis wiring. How are the power wires not wired correctly? Im going to try connecting NSW and STA to the 12v exciter wire from...

Lost patience with this totally, sending it to some professionals now after i quickly try the 12v start signal supply to nsw/sta because thats the only thing i can see thats wrong, its ridiculous.

i just dont get why my effing checkight wont come on. When you turn the ignition on, even with all the auto stuff missing and the nsw/sta disconnected, it should still illuminate the damn light. I just dont get it at all.

yeah ive been through there, it seems like the only thing different is the NSW/STA but id have though it just wouldnt start if there was a problem with them. Any idea on the fuel pressure?

OK, so i took a bit of a sabbatical from working on the car over Christmas and got back on it a bit today, i measured fuel pressure and have noted what wiring ive done. We'll start with the fuel pressure. With the engine off (FPR at atmospheric) and the fuel pump on i got 45psi With the engine...

News for the day, took the car for a longer drive today. It seems as though the lambda has potentially resolved the overfuelling issue which is a start. Bushwhacker. You said you sell plug and play looms. Do you have a guide that comes with it that explicitly says what wire needs to go to what...
